    The contest scoring is complete! More than fifty individuals participated and are in turn eligible for one or more prizes. Determined in part by this participation level, the total value of prizes that are to now be distributed from both Stardock and Apolyton exceeds $1,100US.

    Those who are in the top ten, and would-be as well for prizes, have been contacted by email. What Shadowlord presumes above is correct: they have been contacted at the address supplied in their forum profile. I say "would-be" at this point because these individuals have 72 hours from delivery of their notification to confirm their prize from Stardock or have it forfeited as per contest rules.

    When the top ten are announced publicly, others who are eligible for up to and including nine months of subscription (new or extended) to Apolyton's "PLUS" service will be notified by Private Messaging (PM) of its length. Their subscriptions will also begin at this time; similarly then, the same goes for those in the top five.

    To answer Peets' question above in notable part then, if you received one to eight points this will be exactly reflected in this length. The point totals of those in the top ten will not be disclosed, or reflected for that matter, publicly or privately.

        One week ago today, the ten top winners in the "The Galaxy is Listening" contest for Galactic Civilizations II: Dread Lords were contacted by Apolyton Civilization Site Co-Owner/Administrator Daniel "DanQ" Quick about their win. They are:

        TotalGaming.Net Subscription (10-token)
      • DAVID "DaviddesJ" desJARDINS
      • "Shadowlord" [name withheld as private]
      • HENRIK "Gufnork" PERSSON
      • JASON "Adam Weishaupt" STEVENS
      • LASZLO "uberloz" TOTH

        GalCivII Collector's Edition Copies
      • SCOTT "bonscott" F. [lastname withheld as private]
      • RYAN "Hansolo88" HANSON
      • TOM "oldstatesman" MCANIFF
      • "yin26" [name withheld as private]
      • JAMES "tetley" R. [lastname withheld as private]

        The five who received Collector's Edition copies of GalCivII had theirs mailed to them via FedEx through and courtesy Stardock Systems, the game's developer and publisher. Some have already reported receiving their copy. The five who were instead randomly drawn to receive a 10-token TotalGaming.net subscription will be contacted by email by a Stardock representative in the coming business days about getting their accounts activated.

        All other winners who are eligible for up to and including nine months of subscription (new or extended) to Apolyton`s PLUS service have not yet been notified by Private Messaging (PM) of its length or otherwise, but will be. Their subscriptions will all begin on the same day, as will those in the top five of who also received a subscription. That day will be sometime on/before April 9th.

        Founded in 1998, Apolyton Civilization Site is dedicated to continuing complete coverage of the most comprehensive collection of Civilization-related material on the Internet. Founded in 1991 and incorporated two years later, Stardock is based in Plymouth, Michigan.

        P.S. Yes, I realize that I'm posting this a few days later than I had anticipated -- sorry about that.

            This is a nice marketing move by Stardock. Because now I've got this second copy of Galciv2 and I'm like, "What do i do now?"

              I'm giving my GC2 copy to my friend who really can't afford games. I can't say how greatful he and his kids are to have a new game (and one he's been wanting to get).

                LOL! No thanks. I'm on a diet.

                I, too, am figuring out which friend to send this to...

                  I'm gonna give mine to my Dad, he'll love it for playing on the plane during business trips.

                  I never win stuff either, and wasn't trying to spam posts for this contest. So I was pretty surprised to see my name on the list!
